Amish Furniture – Georgia

Amish are not common in the Deep South, a fact which holds true in Georgia, which has no Amish communities. However, residents of Atlanta, Augusta, Macon and Athens are all within easy driving distance of Amish furniture sellers (while Savannah residents are within range of a number of SC and FL dealers).

Amish-crafted tables, beds, rockers and other pieces have wide appeal for their high quality and attention to detail. Peach State residents have a number of options for Amish-built woodwork.

Handcrafted furniture in the Peach State

Georgia has no Amish community, but Amish quality furniture has gained appreciation in the Peach State. Amish furnishings have found a following in Georgia and other states thanks to a reputation for high quality, solid hardwood construction.

A number of Georgia suppliers offer Amish furniture from states like Ohio and Pennsylvania

Amish craftsmen, guided by Plain Christian values, produce top-notch furniture in their small woodworking shops scattered through Amish communities across the country. Family life is very important to Amish, and all members of a family are often involved in home business. Amish children learn a strong work ethic from an early age, an aspect that has carried over from an agricultural heritage into the newer furniture-making tradition.

Amish furniture comes in a range of traditional and contemporary styles. Amish craftsmen create “heirloom quality” pieces from a variety of solid hard woods, including hickory, maple, cherry, and quartersawn oak. A number of rustic furniture dealers in Georgia offer Amish-made items. Amish wood workers typically produce a standard range of pieces, but will also custom craft individual items for customers in Georgia and beyond.

Amish wood craftsmanship in the South

In recent years, Amish have migrated from their traditional heartland of Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania, driven by growing families and a lack of affordable farmland in some settlements. Amish communities have been established in southern locations like Tennessee, Mississippi and Kentucky.

Furniture shops offer a reasonable alternative to farming, preserving Amish values while allowing family to work together to craft high quality furniture items for their customers, who might live in the same communities as they do, or anywhere across the nation.

Amish once lived in Georgia, though none do today. With a growing population and entrepreneurial knack, will Amish attempt to settle in the Peach State again one day? Whether they do or don’t, Georgia residents have a number of outlets for Amish furniture across the state.
